Test P: LFC 48/DTC B2444 - Driver Crash Sensor Internal Fault

P1 - P2:

Normal Operation
The driver side crash sensor monitors the severity of a side impact crash event. If the crash event is severe enough, the sensor will signal the Restraints Control Module (RCM) to deploy the driver side air bag.

The RCM monitors the two-wire current loop to the driver side crash sensor for a signal that is out of the expected range. If the RCM detects an out-of-range signal from the driver side crash sensor, indicating an internal fault, it will store Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) B2444 and flash a Lamp Fault Code (LFC) 48 (or a higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag indicator.

Possible Causes
A driver side crash sensor internal fault condition could be caused by:
^ damaged wiring on circuit 1261 (WH/LG).
^ damaged wiring on circuit 1262 (BN/LG).
^ damaged driver side crash sensor.
